Wes McKinney reassigned ARROW-2033:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: Antoine Pitrou
> pa.array() doesn't work with iterators
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-2033
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2033
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0
> Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
> Assignee: Antoine Pitrou
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 0.9.0
>
>
> pa.array handles iterables fine, but not iterators if size isn't passed:
> {code:java}
> >>> arr = pa.array(range(5))
> >>> arr
> <pyarrow.lib.Int64Array object at 0x7f4652a05318>
> [
> 0,
> 1,
> 2,
> 3,
> 4
> ]
> >>> arr = pa.array(iter(range(5)))
> >>> arr
> <pyarrow.lib.NullArray object at 0x7f4633c1d638>
> [
> NA,
> NA,
> NA,
> NA,
> NA
> ]
> {code}
> This is because InferArrowSize() first exhausts the iterator.
